Iris Effects File?

[Corcustos_]

I'm looking for the script/file that controls the application of the iris red glow effect. I spent some time sifting through the scripts searching for references to "Olgierd" and "Iris" with no luck. Was wondering if anyone knew what file I should be looking for. The reason for this is that I want to apply the iris effects to other swords. I can add the functionality of the ability using tags on the weapons, but the swords won't glow when the heavy attack effect is ready or used.

Admittedly, even if I do find what I'm looking for, I'm not sure if I could even manage to make these changes. I'm curious on how difficult this would be as I initially intended to look and attempt to figure it out on my own. Insight on any of this is greatly appreciated.

It's a particle effect embedded in the w2ent file of the sword.

I think you can get to the file skacikpl refers to by unpacking \dlc\ep1\content\bundles\blob.bundle with quickbms.
In the extracted files navigate to the directory \dlc\ep1\data\items\weapons\swords\unique\olgierd_sabre.
There's 2 files there, olgierd_sabre.w2ent and olgierd_sabre_curved.w2ent. One of these is the sword's w2ent file.
Each of these has the same file embedded (ie in the includes section). I think that's the particle effect file skacikpl referred to. It is
\items\weapons\swords\witcher_steel_swords\sword_steel_fx.w2ent
The only place I can find a file with that path & name is by unpacking content\content0\bundles\r4items.bundle

You could try embedding this sword_steel_fx.w2ent file into the w2ent file of the sword you're trying to mod.
You can open & edit w2ent files using Sarcen's w3edit program WolvenKit. If that doesn't work I'm out of ideas.

Theres no need to unpack anything if you use WolvenKit.

And sarcens tool is outdated.
